You see, I believe that the people who show up in a hall like this deserve to be respected and deserve to have a Pathway to success and opportunity in our Commonwealth. Do you know, On the first day of my administration, the first thing I did as governor was sign an executive order doing away with the college degree requirement for over 90% of our state government jobs. That opened up nearly 70,000 jobs to people without a college degree. By the way, two years later, more than 60% of the people we've hired in our commonwealth now don't have a college degree.
